How to determine strap size?
- Thread starter JasonGSD

Okay let me take off time from work and head on over!! I'm more likely to buy 1 in every size. But now I'm worried, can I put a NATO on this?
+1. Take the bracelet off and find out, but I agree with Cynikal here.
And you could use one of those online rulers that formats itself to your monitor/resolution, if you're really in a pinch.
Buy one of these from a local hardware store or online for 10$ or so
Place on strap or between lugs on watch like this.
Read number on dial.

That's true, I have a set of $10 calipers sitting beside me for that sort of stuff. In a pinch though, ruler works alright.
Buy a ruler. It will transform your life. Before you know it, you'll be able to draw straight lines. IMO, they're a classic invention.
Is the lug size usually half of the case size? Say 40mm Sub, lug is 20mm; 42mm explorer, 21mm lug.
Hmm, I wouldn't say usually. 44mm PAMs take a 24mm strap, 46mm IWC is 22mm, 50mm U-boat is 23mm (I believe, could be 21mm), etc. Best to just measure or google it, unless the watch is extremely obscure it's not too hard to find out.
